I feel the exact same way. Last season, and the 25+ immediately preceding it, I DEVOURED any and all coverage of NSD....this season, I didn't watch 2 minutes...how does that come back....
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Saying the quiet part out loud)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
If that's your evidence, your case is dead in the water. That clip is even more tenuosly related than the Christmas pretext of Die Hard. Not even a mention of the actual holiday you claim that the film represents.
McClane is at least traveling to see his family to celebrate CHRISTMAS.
It was because of recruiting I've been told, and I'm also told Herman is being replaced after the bowl game...although the coaches out recruiting were telling the recruits that Herman was back. Crazy all the mixed messages.

What good is having a good QB if you can't block for him, provide him a running game, give him top notch WR's and give him a defense that can stop someone?
My bigger concern is that - even when Hermensa was getting highly ranked classes - the classes did not have much heft along the lines. Besides Coburn, Broughton and Collins, which OL / DL's have we gotten that are worth their salt? Without a good OL, the Bijan Robinsons of the world have a tough time etc. etc. etc.
This is nuts. OrangeBloods is not a PR firm for The University of Texas. The football program under Herman creates enough of their own negativity. All OB does is point out what they see as wrong. That is not being negative. That is being realistic. A QB rating is math. It is what it is. Ketch didn't cook the books to make Sam look bad. Sam just took a step back this year (from 55 to 65 to 55%). It is what it is.

I agree with this. BlowU took a chance both times and it paid off for them. There was a certain amount of both skill and luck in that.

I was going to ask this. There is a difference between a stiff-arm and a blow to head. Cmon.
Lincoln Riley would have benched Sam and tried to upgrade the position a long time ago.
Great column @Ketchum !! You stayed positive, kept on point, fetched up a few opinions on topics that seem hard to call and didn't seem to be gaging the political winds to seek the greatest favor with the subscription base. I feel like you just laid it out on how you see right now for Texas to best work out of this mess. Exactly the type of lead article I was hoping for. Thanks !!
Opinion....... Not sure who is a viable option if Mullen and Kelly are not interested.
Oh ok because you stated it as a fact that he was coming back if that were the case.
Heard the same thing tonight. UM is still in play and UT is focusing on coaches and support staff in the final 4 he wants. As a contingency they are talking to other coaches and assistants, and some have already told us not to bother and some are listening. I was told the focus is on the final 4 (???) and NFL (???). No specific names were given, but I was told one name...Mullen was off the table. Final-4: Sark, Elliott? NFL: Rhule & Kingsbury? Could be others, but I don't know who that would be.

OU has a major drop off at QB next year. I just wanted to get this post out of
The way @Ketchum
The way @Ketchum
Our stagnant program these days is reminiscent of the mid-1980s, when the UT faculty enacted academic requirements that rendered the football program and men's basketball uncompetitive for over a decade. While our faculty was sinking our mens programs, our competitors were cleaning up in recruiting. Barry Switzer was playing for national championships and Jackie Sherrill had the Ags in the top 10, winning the conference, and playing Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl. In the midst of this faculty-induced sinkhole, donor groups were being told by DeLoss Dodds that they shouldn't expect Texas to dominate anymore, and that they shouldn't pressure to win championships because it might lead to cheating.
The UT Administration began a propaganda campaign to brainwash fans that they should be proud that their school did things the "right way". Apparently the "right way" didn't mean winning championships, since we've won so few in the past 37 years.
With all due respect unless Mullen or Kelly told you personally I don't believe it. All this confirmation bias inside info is all BS.... LIKE Urban is done... LMAO
The failed Tech coach? Texas is not hiring him.... LMAO.... If so just shut it down..
Yes it was, even high school coach calls a time out there.
Did watch that high school coach in state championship game go for two in OT when he had all the momentum. It was Thursday night.
It called game control Herman has none. He coaches not to lose.
